It should have been directed at a sophomore from Georgetown who was returning after being injured in the season opener.

Otto Porter Jr. had 18 points, 11 rebounds, five assists, five blocks and three steals to lead the Hoyas to a 78-70 victory over the 11th-ranked Bruins on Monday night in the semifinals of the Progressive Legends Classic at the Barclays Center.

"Otto's first full game and look at the stat sheet. That was a full game," Georgetown coach John Thompson III said. "Then there was a lot of other stuff he did that doesn't show up on this piece of paper. It was good to have him back out there."

Porter was hit in the head 6 minutes into the Hoyas' season opener. He sat out the second game of the season.

"I just let the game come to me and that's what I want to do and we'll all get open shots," Porter said.

The 6-foot-6 Muhammad, one of the most highly sought high school players last season, was declared eligible by the NCAA on Friday and this was his first game. He finished with 15 points on 5-of-10 shooting.

"It was really exciting to get down to the court for the first time," Muhammad said.
